I'd agree with the fish emulsion by observation. Epsom salts
with alfalfa tea is good too; per observation.

can someone recommend a fertilizer for roses and fruit trees? I am
using "grobetter" fertilizer which is great but it's sold in california
and i'm in florida.


For the roses I use fish emulsion and composted cow manure. Roses
grow best with organic fertilizers.

What is the research to back this up? Straight, non-confrontational
question. E.g. have there been studies of what you advocate vs. the
fertilizer-cum-pesticide granules sold in garden stores?

Thanks for info.
